firebase map instead of array saved

Context:
I'm using the @buildship/create-firestore-document node to create or update a document in a Firestore collection.
The document should contain an array field named searchTermProxies.
Current Configuration:
Any guidance or help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Solution
@Thomas Use the "Add Object to Firestore Array" node after you create document to update the specific field to type array. It should then update the field type to array, as the current firestore create doc converts the data to the preferred firestore type. This should solve your issue.
